'Idol' Runner-Up David Archuleta Tells All

"I've never watched myself on the show."

David Archuleta may not have won the title of 'American Idol,' but that's a minor detail for the millions of fans who fell in love with the smooth-voiced 17-year-old from Murray, Utah.

A frontrunner from the start (we even wondered if it was possible for anyone to beat Archuleta), now the teen dream embarks on the 'Idol' tour, recording an album and starring as the object of many a young girl's crush.

After the finale, the runner-up spoke to reporters, including AOL TV, about losing to David Cook, the controversy over his dad's involvement in the show and whether he has a girlfriend.
